Spencer Dinwiddie exited Sunday's game vs. the Charlotte Hornets in the third quarter with a knee strain and did not return.

The guard went to the ground and grabbed at his right knee for a few seconds before hobbling over to the Nets' bench. 

After being looked at by trainers on the side, Dinwiddie went to the locker room and was ruled out.

Before leaving, Dinwiddie was having a quiet game with five points, four rebounds and three assists in 15 minutes of play. 

After the Hornets handed the Nets their first loss of the season 106-104, Steve Nash told reporters that Dinwiddie would be evaluated again on Monday.
